Scraping electronics stores in South Africa — price & assortment monitoring
Electronics catalogs in South Africa: models, specifications, prices and stock — for competitor monitoring and analytics.
Electronics catalogs are the most intricate: variants, EAN/GTIN codes, bundles, warranties. We normalize them across stores in South Africa so the same model is recognized in every price list — no manual SKU matching.
There are 5 platforms here, led by Incredible (Incredible Connection), iStore, HiFi Corp by domain authority. Site size is not a constraint: catalogs with hundreds of thousands of SKUs and small stores are normalized to the same field schema, making sellers directly comparable.
Delivery is tailored to the task: from a one-off Excel/CSV file to a stream of updates via API or into your DBMS. We start with a free data sample — you verify structure and quality before any payment.
